Pencil-on-Paper Sensor for Water Detection

الملخص EN

This paper sets out a simple and affordable method for the manufacture of a water sensor involving drawing marks on paper using a flexible pencil.

The sensor indicates flexible endurance variations upon exposure to water or a drying surface.

It can be employed for the detection of water substances in ethanol.

In addition, an experiment suggests the usefulness of the sensor for the sensing of breath.

This shows the immense potential applications of the sensor for wearable and also health-inspecting electronic gadgetry.
